A prison guard has lifted the lid on how a mass coronavirus outbreak ripped through HMP Norwich.
A surge in Covid cases in December and January at the Knox Road prison was one reason for the city’s soaring levels of infections last month. At the start of the year, the area around the prison recorded one of the highest infection rates in the country.
One guard said he was aware of several infected prisoners who had been released into the community when their sentences were up and said he feared that further spread the virus.
